Anastasia is a fantastic teacher. She is very supportive and tailors each lesson depending on the students needs. I am an adult learner and feel that she is the best teacher for me. Anastasia is able to identify strengths and weaknesses and works with you to overcome them, she is also flexible and makes sure that you have helpful exercises and activities to do outside of lessons. I would highly recommend her.
Excellent teacher, understands what steps you need to improve your playing and adapts your lessons to your current ability and motivations.
Very clear instruction, understood what I wanted/needed to learn, gave me clear guidance on what to do and how to practice it, made a visible difference in the lesson. Very pleased.
